Goto http://www.syncope.co.uk/syncope_and_driving.htm for details.

I am not allowed to drive as I have so many attacks, am unconscious for several minutes and very ill afterwards - it is considered too dangerous by my specialist for me to drive in these circumstances. Basically I think it boils down to what causes your VV episodes.
